Bulunduğu Yeri
Taken to Manisa museum in 1946. Originally found in AT, "just below the pteroma level, in the space between the antae" of the W cella in 1910 (Sardis I, 53).
Tanım
The figure wears an ungirt peplos with short sleeves; Hanfmann and Polatkan suggest (Three Sculptures, 65) that this may be a priestess of Artemis, although the dress is quite different from Moschine (Cat. 246, Figs. 426-427), the only known priestess from Sardis. The I. arm is brought forward, against the body, and the hand seems to have clasped a vertical fold of drapery. Despite the present-day impression from the photo, this is not a relief but a figure in the round (note preservation of trace of r. hand and discussion by Hanfmann and Polatkan) which would presumably have stood in the pronaos of the Artemis Temple. "Close inspection reveals that many folds are worked with mechanical, deeply gouged 'runs' typical of the first half of the 2nd century A.D." (Hanfmann-Polatkan, Three Sculptures, 64).
